Big changes are coming for 1099 this year and the filing process will change for many businesses. Whether you are a landlord, real estate investor, or property manager, be sure you understand the new changes to 1099 filing requirements for the upcoming tax year.


Before the bustle of the holiday season gets underway, now is the time to ensure you have all of your 1099 prep completed and you fully understand how to file your 1099 forms according to this season’s new requirements.

The 1099 filing process will change for many businesses. The e-file threshold for 1099 forms has been reduced. Even if you were previously not required to electronically file your 1099 forms, this year, you may need to e-file.

On February 23, 2023, the IRS released final regulations that lowers the e-file threshold for certain information returns from 250 returns to 10 returns for calendar year 2023 (filed in 2024). This regulation includes the total for all aggregated forms filed.

The IRS is requiring filers with 10 or more forms to electronically file for the upcoming 2023 tax year (to be filed in 2024). Keep in mind, this regulation includes the total for all aggregated forms filed (1099, W-2, 1095, etc.). If you are a Rentec Direct client, the e-filing process is already available to you through your property management software.

Electronically file with ease through Rentec Direct e-file services with Nelco.

Through a secure integration with Nelco Solutions, the leading experts in tax reporting solutions, Rentec Direct software makes filing your 1099 tax documents easy.

No extra data entry is necessary, no need to pay an expensive accountant, your property management software compiles all the relevant data needed to create 1099-MISC and 1099 NEC forms from your account.

With a push of a button, that data transfers from your Rentec Direct account to the Nelco Solutions site, which creates the appropriate 1099 forms, mails copies to your recipients, and e-files with the IRS, as well as applicable state agencies, allowing you to meet deadlines and remain compliant with your tax obligations.
